An example is

J S 7 2 0 2 8

26 ways to choose any letter to go where the J is, times
25 ways to choose any DIFFERENT letter to go where the S is 
      than the one chosen to go where the J is, times
10 ways to choose any digit to go where the 7 is, times
10 ways to choose any digit to go where the first 2 is, times
10 ways to choose any digit to go where the 0 is, times
10 ways to choose any digit to go where the second 2 is, times
10 ways to choose any digit to go where the 8 is.  That's

26x25x10x10x10x10x10 = 65000000

Sixty-five million.
